The entire industry collapsed, but he worked on https://framevr.io/ which was exactly the type of software that people flocked to during COVID. After people were able to go home again, many of these companies tried to pivot to the metaverse in hopes of jot throwing out their product entirely, unsuccessfully it seems.

Conceptually, it's not terrible. The product isn't as much of scam as you might think it is based on the metaverse tag.

i dont know of a single person, technical or non-technical that thought the metaverse would ever account for anything whatsoever. it was always a non-starter. a dead end. it is ridiculous just on premise, let alone any serious valuation.

The premise is ridiculous to cool people, not business majors, but they're the ones who control the money.
